It should look better when you get a blending wash over it Tommy .

I think you’re on the right path matey. Bring it together with a filter then oil dots would be my plan.

Nice camo Tommy! I need to second Paul and Steve. My B1 had some problems after the retouch of the camo spots. The filter and oil dot will blend everything in a good way.

Thanks Steve and Marco. Gone over with oils and added some extra bits of camo. Also feathered out the hard edges.
Lot happier with it now.
But you are right, with a filter it should be OK

Thanks snipersmudge. Doing it in sub sections has meant I can really get the inside done. Going to get some stowage in before putting the top on.
